This 500 square foot jewel box shop is housed in a century old former neighborhood grocer in the heart of downtown Greenwich, my hometown.

I could see the space had charm and great potential upon first visit — 10 ft. tall tin ceilings, and symmetrical showcase windows. It’s an off kilter square room that I painted floor to ceiling with gallons of white paint and installed classic track lighting to recall the straightforwardness of an old gallery space.

It’s a blank canvas that I plan to stylistically reimagine, multiple times throughout the year. I want the shop to be a salon where people gather and long to revisit. Within I’ve assembled a collection of refurbished antiques and period pieces with great personality – ranging from the 17th century to today.

The shop also offers a selection of fabulous & important costume jewelry, Régime des Fleurs bespoke fragrance, contemporary artworks from AK Jansen, Wayne Pate, Doug Meyer and Alicia Ethridge, pottery by Nicholas Newcomb, Noguchi Akari light sculptures, Turkish & Iranian rugs and much more. We’re also very pleased to present a snapshot of unique items from the beloved Creel & Gow!

My ultimate goal is to get people excited about coming to a physical shop once again, to enjoy a one-on-one 360 experience – that you simply cannot recapture through a screen. So much of whatever knowledge I’ve gained and point of view I’ve established, came from a childhood spent visiting these one off environments and soaking in the varied philosophies of their offbeat proprietors – it was always a colorful, memorable and enriching experience, this is what I feel is sadly missing today & what I’m determined to recreate!

I look forward to welcoming you in soon!
